In all seriousness, I don't get why people get so mad over getting killed in Hunted. You chose to take the risk of someone attacking you in return for the extra xp bonus. Of course there's going to be people who actively try and attack players. That's just how PvP works. It looks almost as if people think they are entitled to a free xp boost.

Wrong. I literally got ambushed yesterday, along with a few others, at the 16 node eel spot. I got oneshot after my agility finally didn't proc and just moved to another eel spot to avoid being killed again and so I could keep leveling. It was really just a minor inconvenience, and I really don't mind them at all.
I'm speaking for a guild member here, but hunters can truly cause some annoyance. During a prof bomb party, a fellow guild member of mine was mining in order to reach a landmark level, and he was only using untradeable gear (not a build, though). Then, a hunter from an opposing guild showed up (perhaps out of boredom or xp farming) and camped the area, killing the guild member every time he tried to approach.
(this is longer than 420 characters) Now, I feel conflicted about this situation. Of course, I naturally feel biased for my fellow guild member, who was minding his own business, but he also did not expect hunters (though he did have only untradeable gear) and also did not try to move spots (I'm assuming because the spot he was mining was the most efficient or convenient).
On the other hand, the hunter was indeed relentless and ruined a prof grinding session, though they did have incentives to do so (entertainment, experience, guild conflict). This is why I'm not sure what to think of this situation. I just feel like it was an unnecessary interaction in some way or another. (my apologies for filling this reply thread, but I felt like I had to put this out there)
being hunted is literally why hunted exists, the bonuses are just an incentive to play. if you can't handle hunted mode, then maybe it's just not a challenge you should play
